    I'm assured by folks that I trust that it's a real car. Possibly from Australia...the front end looks GMish to me.

    The 50's wrap around windshield and roof line mated to a late 60's body style indicates that it is either photo chopped or AI generated.

    Look at the vent windows, one side has a slanted vent and the other is straight up and down like a 55 chevy, gotta be AI. HRP

  20. It was (and still is) Richard Childress’ 3 Dale Earnhardt was the driver, as were Childress himself, then Earnhardt who left to drive for Bud Moore in 82 and 83, then Ricky Rudd, and then Dale Earnhardt again 1984-2001


    8 is the Earnhardt family number!

    Ralph Earnhardt…

    and is why Ralph Dale Earnhardt Jr. wanted to keep the 8 when he left DEI
